New GeoNews Aggregator
Aparecido Leite, aka @Geoteq, shared via Twitter that his new geo news aggregator called 630in is in beta. Unlike PlanetGS it includes sites beyond blogs/news sites and content beyond text. It covers cartography, geography, remote sensing, GNSS, LBS, web mapping, geospatial technology, GIS, geomatics, etc. divided into these categories:
- blogs
- news + pr
- tech websites
- by Google
- gov + org
- finance + biz
- geography
- forums + Q & A
- earthquakers [sic]
- videos + images
- infographics
The page is elegant and covers quite a number of source. I'll note it included some sources I don't see too often. I found myself mousing over every entry to learn the source before clicking through. The addition of the source and maybe a short blurb with a mouse-over would be the enhancement suggestion at the top of my list.
